I had a mouse or two stuff pink building insulation in the fender wells of my Tacoma and when I turned on the blower, all this insulation came out thru the vents. Now the blower vibrates my dash when turned on high. I will pull the fan uit and see if I have a wad of insulation in the fan unit.

The blower motor is located directly below the passanger glove box on the right. Its a round flat plate with 2 small screws holding it in place. All you need is a screwdriver and a pair of wire cutters (the wire cutters totally depend on whether the replacement is factory or not.) Simply unblot the existing part and replace it with the new part. If you have purchased an aftermarket part you will need to cut and attach the factory harness pigtail to your motor. Also the replacement part I purchased didn't come with the blower wheel, so I had to remove the old one and place it on the new motor. Works like a charm! Easy install and best of all....I have air after 2 years without!!

well it could be just a relay for the fan blower motor or a fuse. check all the fan positions..low med high..Its something you can fix but it if got about 600.00 dollars laying around .. take it to the Dealer..lol..Good Luck!!!

I had the same problem on my 2004 Corrolla and ultimately it only worked on high. The dealer charged me $45 diagnostic fee and almost immediately told me it was a part called the blower resister. They knew the answer right there and then but only realesed it when I agreed to pay the diagnostic. They charged me 179.00 to fix the AC and later I found out the part cost $8.95 and a novice could have replaced it themselves.

Replace the fan motor resistor, which is located in the blower housing, (under the dash, under the glove box) to the driver side of the fan motor. Held on by 2 screws. Common problem. I change a lot of them.
